Is anyone else tired of Dooley's...

...cryptic approach with the media? I want to like the guy. I really do, but with the circus-esque fiasco of Janzen Jackson last summer, and now with DaRick Rogers, his word-play with the media and his overall antagonistic approach is getting old. He won't say DaRick Rogers is suspended, but says that "he has some things to do before he can come back, and if he doesn't do them, he won't be here". Is that not the textbook definition of a suspension?

No. I love his sarcasm, straight shooting way about talking about players and team.

That's fine. Personal preference. I stated in a later post that my biggest problem with this particular incident is his unwillingness to label this as a suspension. He spells out, to me, what amounts to a suspension from team activities, but refuses to label it as such. It's just another attempt to mask what is going on, but still leaking enough information to garner interest from fans and media.

I'd like to just see him do what CCM did with Kenny Hall, and say he is suspended indefinitely for a violation of team policy, and then not address it again until he is either dismissed or reinstated. Either be entirely candid or clam up. His middle of the road approach to it is what is frustrating.

Maybe it's a matter of semantics:

sus·pend/səˈspend/

Verb:

Your definition:
Temporarily prevent from continuing or being in force or effect: "work on the dam was suspended".

CDD's:
Officially prohibit (someone) from holding their usual post or carrying out their usual role for a particular length of time.

And just for the record:

What in the heck does it matter?!

Apples and oranges. If you can't see that, I can't help you. One, I'm not a public figure and thus am not subject to the public scrutiny nor the public adoration that an athlete at a major D-1 university is afforded. Two, releasing my professional record would be a violation of privacy laws. Simply stating whether someone is suspended or not is merely a clarification. Again, apples and oranges.

Obviously not to your liking but it has been clarified.

Can a brotha get a merge up in here?

Would Henny Penny, Goosey Loosey, Turkey Lurkey, and Foxy Loxy please report to the pharmacy desk; your prescriptions are ready.

And I later agreed with Lynx, who stated this possibility. I'm just clarifying for those just joining in and quoting my original post from 5 or more hours ago what my disagreement was at the time.

I read the first few pages and really didn't need to read them all..When the OP becomes Head Coach and/or Media Relations Director, them you might know how to "handle" the media..CDD does it how he see fit..If the Negavols or media don't like it, apply for the job or STFU....

Dooley is the result of some very poor timing and bad decision making after said timing. He is in over his head and will be glad when he is gone. He is irrelevant to the quality of the next hire. The next hire may be terrible as well but that does not change the fact that Dooley is a career loser.

Who you got for the next HC? I'll hang up and listen.

I'm not saying that there is a direct correlation. I just don't understand people who so vigorously defend his every move, when the sum of all his moves is two losing seasons and last year's disastrous UK loss. There seem to be people in this fanbase who honestly think Dooley can do no wrong, and that puzzles me. Maybe it's time for both him and the fans to entertain the idea that what he's done so far isn't working, and see if there might be a better way of approaching things.

I'll ask the same to you. Who is your choice to replace Dooley?

Dooley creates all of these problems by treating all the schollys like they are amazing before they even do anything, then gets upset when they are divas. Players should know, one unit, one team and no one is better than any other. Until he stops this, this same problem will continue!

I'll remember this post the next time you and your +1 hillbillies call Dooley out for throwing incomplete on fourth-and-short instead of running the ball.

This board exists for people to express their opinions. You can disagree all you want, but to act as though fans shouldn't express their opinion with a coach's decision, on the field or off, in a public forum is laughable. That is the reason forums like this exist.

So, CDD throws them under the bus while giving them too much credit and turning them into divas?

What bus? Dooley hasnt thrown anyone under the bus, he keeps protecting him. The truth is he lost control of him and cant get it back. Fulmer would bench someone with attitude and so did Kiffen and the players knew that. Dooley should only talk about the walk ons for a couple of weeks and stop pumping these guys heads up! Oh wait! He cant do that! He doesnt know their names!

Now that is funny. Kelley washington says hello, and that is just the first one that comes to mind. Fulmer and discipline do not go together.

Hell, just start a blog or get a media pass..Same difference..And resorting to the term "hillbillies" should help with your resume'..I stated facts, you stated an opinion..Own it or argue with facts instead of name calling and whining...
